I want to thank you for putting out these videos. There is some great race walking content by the masters, but very rare to see this tracking footage, which is helpful for working on cadence. Thank you!!
@EWALK Great video and superb technique, congratulations! Could you please tell me what equipement you use to have Emmanuel always centered in this video and the camera so stable ?
This is a GoPro 10. If you’re looking to get a video like this, I recommend getting the same camera or a higher model. They are really cheap and affordable now I think they all retail for $200 flat.
@@EWALK Thanks, for the first part of the answer. The second part of my question is : What do your girlfriend do to have you always centered in the frame of this video and to have the camera so stable ?
@@RWLuckyLuc honestly I would hate to say it. But we really just aim the camera strategically. I rarely have to edit centering the video in post. We just have a lot of experience working with the gear that we have. I’m sorry, but we don’t have any solid tips on that one.
@@EWALK Indeed, you both seem to have a lot of experience working with your gear. By the way, did anyone tell you how much your RW technique looks like Philip Dunn's ? I had the chance to train 2 weeks with him, John Nunn and coach Enrique Pena, back in 2007, in Chula Vista (California). Thanks again, for your honests answers ;-) And, Happy New Year, to both of you !
dude is allready running.. this is the dumbest sport ever.. just runners pretending to walk. I can literally freeze frame a thousand pics out of this video where both dudes feet are off the ground
ALL the time! I come from a running background! a lot of people dont know that about me, but I only started walking when I was 21. My first 10-12 years in track and field were running. Every racewalker in the world should implement running in their training to push fitness for VO2 max, like you said, but more importantly to not neglect other muscle groups! My best years as a race walker had afternoon runs almost 4 days out of the week every week. but a majority of my milage is always gonna be walking for the sake of perfecting technique. Great question!
@@EWALK I use to be a runner too but now with lower spine messed up, speed walking it is. I use bike 2x week for interval training doing hill sprints to get to 190bpm. I can't never get my heart rate over 170bpm walking uphill. Thanks for the reply.
@troutjunkie7330 it’s true that heart rate doesn’t get that high while race walking, but it doesn’t necessarily need to do that if the mileage is high enough. I train a lot through high mileage and through high speed. Doing a solid 75 to 80 miles a week can really make up for it. But I understand what you’re saying.
I appreciate it. For real, all I’m trying to do is represent. My philosophy is you don’t have to respect the event, but hopefully you can respect me as an athlete. I got just as much dog in me as the next guy. 🔥
I also run in my spare time. But running and elite Racewalking are very different. If you'd like to learn more about Racewalking, you can subscribe for more!
You would be correct Brian. At an elite level, almost all athletes are off the ground. The official rule of Racewalking states that both feet must remain in contact with the ground at all times "to the human eye" this is a very important part of the Sport that a lot of people tend to forget. If you understand that it's not the intention of an athlete to purposefully go and lift with both feet off the ground, then you can see that every country in the world treats it the same way. Cameras are not allowed to be used and because of the classic nature of the event, we are always being judged with anywhere between 3 to 5 official judges on a course at any time. Believe me when I say, I have been disqualified before in the past, and it is a very natural part of the event. But this channel is for representation of what an athlete in the life of a professional racewalking event would look like. it's fine if you don't agree with it, but a lot of people who care about the event do tend to ask me for advice on how to improve.
Awesome! I cant get over how fluid you make it look, like a machine! So fast! Makes me feel like a snail! Great inspirational video!
Thanks for the compliment! I really appreciate that! Lots of training lots of going fast practice haha

Thank you for that. I try my best to be transparent with my form and technique. Even when I don’t like it myself haha
Thank you very much!!!
I lo estoy your videos
Thank you for watching. And commenting!

Wow he is so fast
Thank you
Do you ever run to use different muscle groups? I've seen some racewalkers run intervals to improve VO2 max and to keep injuries at bay.

Nice walk

I use ASICS Hyper speed! I do NOT use plated shoes at the moment.
Hey i m from india i started race walking one month before 7 km in one hour how can i go to 10 km in one hour 😢
Just keep focusing on doing at least one hard workout a week and do longer walks!
@@EWALK ty
Aight dawg, I forgive you in that case. Much success in your endeavors

why you running if you're supposed to be walking LMAO
